pedialyte ?

coco99

is it unsafe to give your child pedialyte when s/he's not sick?  DD had diarrhea for about a week due to a stomach virus - the diaper blowouts have stopped but we still have some opened pedialyte left over, which needs to be used up within a few days. do i just toss it or is it ok to continue feeding her, even though she's not having a hydration problems?  TIA!
